Salesforce is an essential tool for the modern Salesforce administrator. The process builder allows users to create automated tasks without writing any code. This can be useful for activity such as browser testing, configuration updates, and many other administrative tasks. It also provides opportunities for greater visibility of all workflows through Apex code and visualisations. Alongside this, the ability to set up triggers using the process builder streamlines tasks by limiting steps which can automate multiple workflows or be repeated with frequency than human interaction could possible allow.

Additionally, Salesforce automation often uses command line interfaces to build workflows and activities which usually lack sufficient features in the Workflow app itself .
